Advance Sales Begin January 27th (Mon) at Daikanyama T-Site
Baxter of California, collaborating with ato this time, was founded in 1965 by Baxter Finley in Beverly Hills, USA. The brand offers a wide range of skincare products ideal for men's skin, as well as shaving and anti-aging items. It is a must-have brand for Hollywood celebrities and men who value fashion and lifestyle.
While they have previously collaborated with Colette in Paris, Saturdays Surf NYC, and Porter, this marks their first collaboration with a Tokyo-based fashion brand.
The fragrance candle "NIGHT RITUAL" is based on the concept of "SKIN / NIGHT / RITUAL" and features a citrus-based scent. Its aroma evolves as it burns, creating a characteristic depth that envelops the space. While primarily designed for men, it has a refreshing scent that is also appealing to women.
The candle utilizes midnight blue wax, evoking the night, and its black and gold packaging, inspired by the world of quiet rituals, further expresses the concept of "NIGHT RITUAL."
Prior to the general release in February, a special corner featuring advance sales of the product will be available at Daikanyama T-Site (1st Floor, Building 2, within Magazine Street) from January 27th (Mon) to February 10th (Mon). This corner will showcase the candle's advance sales, along with a curated selection of books that inspired the collaboration, ato's latest collection, and items from Baxter of California.
